Lemme tell ya a little story Fresh out of my dormitory Didn't know where things were going City life felt like drownin' in the ocean Late nights lying in my bed With all these thoughts swimming through my head Lonely times drifting in my dreams I feel alright when I'm drifting, drifting Lonely times drifting in my dreams tonight Woah, woah, woah We used to go out drinking 40s 'Til the sun was rising in the morning Well now I'm older, but not much wiser I look back on those days as a reminder Plans might fall apart at the seams But you can never take away my dreams Just sit back and watch the years roll by Travel around the sun in the blink of an eye You know, I can't help but crack a smile When I think back to the lonely times, yeah Lonely times drifting in my dreams I feel alright when I'm drifting, drifting (away) Lonely times drifting in my dreams tonight Yeah I'm drifting away Lonely times Lonely times Yeah I'm drifting, drifting Lonely times Oh, Lonely times Lonely times drifting in my dreams tonight
